War & Peace

"War & Peace" is the sweeping BBC adaptation of Tolstoy's novel. It traces love, war, and the tangled fortunes of Russian aristocracy during the Napoleonic era. Tuppence Middleton stars as Helene Kuragina, a woman whose beauty and ambition drive much of the drama's early tension. The archive holds 2 scenes from the series showing Middleton nude. They capture the kind of period-drama sensuality that made the show more than just a literary exercise. For fans of prestige costume drama with an unclothed edge, this hub delivers exactly that.
